I posted a similar thread in general dream discussion, but it has a better place here since It's a more relevant topic.

I have been trying to Lucid Dream the last week so far, I haven't had any progress but I'm still trying to get into the mood. I've tried several methods such as the "Wake Back to Bed" (WBTB? If I remember) and I've also tried WILD'ing which yielded results as I made it as far as the 99% point where transition could have happened.

I've thought of Lucid Dreaming for a few years, But it's been a scary aspect because of the Hallucinogens I'll see while trying to get in SP/LD. The first experience I had was back in 3rd grade. But it was very non controllerableish. Aside from the enviroment, The only changeable thing was my appearance. But anyway...

Something I have been wondering is self discovery through Lucid Dreams. I've heard of "Spirit Guides" (From other threads) or people who would guide you through your dream. And what i can tell, these Spirit Guides are like your inner likeness? They represent your deep inner thoughts? Or represent your persona?

One of the things I been wondering is, Is it possible overcome fears? And discover things like hidden secrets about ones self?

Recently I feel as if I haven't been my real self lately, And I've been through a lot the last few years, especially since I've had a traumatic year trying to end High School only to find out I didn't graduate. I've had a bit of self doubt and I wanted to get help. But recently nobody really understands me, And I don't trust anyone to talk too because everyone seems to judgemental all because I'm the odd man out compared to everyone else.

But continuing on what my theory was on. It is possible to have a conversation with your self and find out about your self, Like the memories and feelings you've had and tried to forget and all that stuff. Because I feel as if the only person I could really ask about these problems would be my self, But I'm well aware that in real life I can't just talk to my self for the answers. But my subconscious would be the one to answer all the things that my mind doesn't want to tell me.

And for some reason, I keep wondering what my spirit guide would look like. Or some special being in my dream that will guide me. For some reason I'd assume it'd be like the hidden persona of my self, Traits that I normally don't show, Or something deep inside. Or kinda like an angel of some sort.
